Chapter 85 Chapter 85

"Captain! Get in the car!" Jia Zheng leaned out of the car window and shouted, fearing that if he was any later he would be surrounded by the villagers again.

He wiped his sweat, looked at the villagers still coming towards him in the rearview mirror, and muttered with lingering fear: "The folks in Kangzhuang Village are too enthusiastic..."

Sun Xingxing fastened his seat belt and suddenly burst into laughter: "Brother Jia, look at the leader."

Wen Yanxi was seen standing in the same place, surrounded by several middle-aged women. He was frantically dealing with the basket of eggs handed to him by them, and a rare look of embarrassment appeared on his cold face.

"All of these are available in the army. Aunts, keep them for yourselves!" Chen Zhaoyue hurried forward to help.

As she spoke, she took the shaky basket of eggs from Wen Yanxi's arms and carefully put it back into the hands of her aunts.

Wen Yanxi was able to escape, and with the villagers' warm farewell, the two of them finally squeezed into the jeep.

The moment the car door closed, Wen Yanxi breathed a sigh of relief, and the strands of hair on his forehead became a little messy, no longer looking as stern as usual.

Chen Zhaoyue couldn't help but move closer and whispered, "Uncle also has times when he can't handle it?"

There was a sly smile in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, and her hair accidentally brushed against his neck, causing Wen Yanxi's Adam's apple to roll unconsciously.

Looking at the tips of his red ears, Shen Zhaoyue retreated to her seat with satisfaction, a sly curve at the corner of her lips.

Wen Yanxi then started the car, his slender fingers resting on the steering wheel, the back of his bony hands still bearing red marks from the beating he had just done.

"Little doctor, please come often when you are free!" Outside the car, the villagers were still waving enthusiastically.

Chen Zhaoyue waved goodbye to them through the car window. Several young people stood there, staring eagerly at the direction the car was leaving.

After the car drove a distance away, Shen Zhaoyue took out a small celadon bottle from the medicine box, turned around and handed it to the back seat: "You can apply this medicine to him."

She pointed at Jia Zheng's blood-soaked cuffs. He had just been stabbed in the arm and had not had time to treat it.

"Thank you, Doctor Shen!" Sun Xingxing hurriedly took it and ripped open Jia Zheng's sleeve neatly.

Military doctor?

When the idiot with his mouth blocked in the back seat heard this, he immediately started struggling with a "whine".

Although he was tied up like a dumpling at this moment, his sinister eyes were fixed on Chen Zhaoyue, filled with disbelief and resentment.

He never expected that this seemingly weak "female educated youth" was actually a member of the army!

"Woo woo..." Shadan cursed angrily, but his mouth was blocked and he had no idea what he was cursing.

He has now fully realized that the failure of this ambush is mostly due to this woman!

Seeing this, Sun Xingxing swung his arm and slapped Shadan on the back of the head: "What are you looking at!"

The blow was so powerful that it caused the man's head to tilt and he passed out.

Wen Yanxi glanced in the rearview mirror, his eyes as cold as ice.

The car sped along the rugged mountain road, and the dust it kicked up left a long trail behind it.

Soon, the gray wall of the military base came into view.

The sentry saw the license plate and immediately saluted and let the car pass, and the car drove straight into the army.

"Jia Zheng, Sun Xingxing." Wen Yanxi pushed the door open and got out of the car. His voice was stern: "First, lock him up in a small dark room and keep him under strict guard."

"Yes!" The two answered in unison and dragged the unconscious Shadan and the half-dead Zhang Qing out of the car swiftly.

Sun Xingxing also didn't forget to kick Shadan to make sure that he wouldn't wake up for a while.

Wen Yanxi turned to Chen Zhaoyue, his eyes falling on the bandage on her neck that was already oozing with blood, and his brows furrowed again.

"I'll take you to the hospital to treat your wound first." He said in a low voice, with a firmness that could not be refused.

Chen Zhaoyue chuckled and blinked her bright almond eyes: "Uncle, have you forgotten? I'm a doctor myself."

She lightly touched the bandage on her neck with her fingertips, looking relaxed: "This is just a minor injury, I can handle it myself."

After applying the ointment with spiritual spring water, her wounds have probably healed by now.

If I really go to the health center, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain.

Wen Yanxi pressed his thin lips into a straight line, his eyes fixed on the bandage, he couldn't help but feel uneasy.

"I'm really fine, uncle, go and do your thing!" Chen Zhaoyue gently pushed Wen Yanxi's arm, her fingertips carelessly brushing across his sturdy forearm: "The enemy spies still need to hurry up and interrogate them!"

Wen Yanxi's eyes darkened, and a cluster of tiny flames seemed to emerge from the places she touched.

His Adam's apple moved slightly, his eyes lingered on her stubborn little face for a moment, and he finally compromised: "Then you go home and rest first."

Facing Chen Zhaoyue, his voice always softened unconsciously: “These past few days… you’ve been working hard.”

As he spoke, he raised his hand to touch the wound on her neck, but stopped in mid-air. In the end, he just brushed away a strand of hair from her temple.

Chen Zhaoyue raised his head and watched the sunlight cast a layer of light on Wen Yanxi's body. It seemed that even his usually sharp eyebrows and eyes looked a little gentler.

"It's okay, not hard." She responded softly, but stood there without moving, as if waiting for something.

The two of them just stared at each other, neither of them willing to look away first.

"Brother Jia, can we switch? This idiot is too heavy!" Sun Xingxing's voice suddenly came from the distance.

Wen Yanxi just woke up from a dream and took a half step back in panic: "I... went to the office."

"Yeah." Chen Zhaoyue nodded, but suddenly grabbed his sleeve when passing by: "Uncle, you should also pay attention to rest."

After saying that, he let go of her hand and walked briskly out of the army.

After several days of free medical consultations, she really needs a good rest.

Wen Yanxi stood there, watching her figure gradually walk away. The warmth of her fingertips seemed to still remain on his cuffs.

He took a deep breath, turned around, regained his usual calmness, and strode towards the commander's office.

But this time, there was a gentle curve at the corner of his mouth that he didn't even notice.

After a while, Wen Yanxi arrived at the commander's office.

Knock knock knock——

"Enter!"

Seeing Wen Yanxi push the door open and enter, Wen Qimin's eyes lit up and he immediately stood up excitedly: "You're back? How's it going?"

Wen Yanxi stood at attention and saluted: "Report to the commander, the mission has been successfully completed."

His voice was calm, yet a hint of excitement was hidden in it. "Two enemy spies who had been lurking in Kangzhuang Village for many years have been apprehended."

"Okay! Okay!" Wen Qimin slammed the table, causing the water in the teacup to splash out.

He took two steps at a time and walked up to Wen Yanxi. His calloused hand patted his shoulder hard, "I knew you could do it!"

"But..." Wen Yanxi suddenly changed the subject, this time with a hint of pride in his tone: "The successful completion of this mission is thanks to Zhaoyue."

He briefly recounted Shen Zhaoyue's contribution this time.

…

"What? Miss Zhaoyue is injured?" Wen Qimin had just sat down when he suddenly jumped up from the chair, his eyes wide open.

He grabbed Wen Yanxi's arm with such force that the fabric of his clothes wrinkled. "Where are you hurt? Is it serious?"

"It's been bandaged." Wen Yanxi paused before responding, "I asked her to go back and rest."

The office suddenly became quiet.

Wen Qimin slowly sat back in his chair, his sharp eyes scanning Wen Yanxi's face back and forth.

The old commander suddenly laughed, his smile meaningful: "You kid..."

He deliberately dragged out his tone, tapping his fingers lightly on the table. "You're obviously worried, so why do you have such a stern face?"

The sunlight outside the window just happened to shine on Wen Yanxi's earlobe, dyeing the skin there red.

He looked away with a stern face and abruptly changed the subject: "Commander, regarding the captured enemy spies..."

"Alright, alright!" Wen Qimin laughed and waved his hands, "I'll hand them over to you for interrogation."

As he spoke, he smiled so hard that the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were squeezed into a flower: "Zhaoyue girl has made a great contribution this time. I will ask the kitchen team to prepare a table of delicious dishes tonight to reward her well!"

Wen Yanxi pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "She needs to rest."

"Oh?" Wen Qimin raised his eyebrows, his eyes flashing with mischief.

This kid is really different now that he has come to his senses. He has learned to be considerate of others.

"It's only noon now!" The old commander deliberately glanced at the sky outside the window. The sun was hanging high above the flagpole of the training ground. "Dinner is in the evening."

Wen Yanxi's ears flushed red, and his Adam's apple rolled unconsciously before he whispered, "Yes, Commander."

Wen Qimin patted his nephew's shoulder and said meaningfully, "You are so lucky, kid."

Wen Yanxi pursed his lips and didn't respond, but his stern brows softened unconsciously.

"Go ahead." The old commander waved his hand and said, "Remember to come for dinner on time tonight."

As he turned around, he added, "Take Zhaoyue with you."

————

"I'm finally back!" After returning to the military compound, Chen Zhaoyue couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although she has not lived in this courtyard for long, she feels a strong sense of belonging here.

Chen Zhaoyue went to the kitchen first, boiled some water, and then slipped into the space.

When she comes out of the shower, the water is boiled and poured into the thermos, so Wen Yanxi can take a shower directly when he comes back.

"Johnny, what are you doing?" As soon as he stepped into the space, Chen Zhaoyue was shocked by the scene in front of him and stopped.

Johnny was holding a chip that was flashing blue light and inserting it into his brain interface.

Even if it is an advanced robot, such a chip of unknown origin cannot be installed casually!

"Miss!" Johnny's electronic eyes instantly lit up with excitement when he saw Chen Zhaoyue.

Without hesitation, it fully inserted the chip into the brain interface and waved its arms joyfully as it approached: "I knew the young lady was the best to Johnny! The young lady loves Johnny the most!"

Its voice was an octave higher than usual, with an abnormal excitement.

Chen Zhaoyue frowned and reached out to hold down its flailing arm: "Did you get the virus from inserting the chip randomly?"

She carefully examined Johnny's pupils, where the blue light was flickering at an abnormal frequency. "Where did this chip come from?"

Chen Zhaoyue's solar plexus was throbbing.

This wasn't the lab where Johnny was developed, and if anything went wrong with the stupid robot, she wouldn't have anywhere to turn for help.

Johnny said excitedly: "This morning a package suddenly appeared at my door, and there was no recipient written on it. But when I opened it, I found a high-end chip inside!"

It puffed out its chest proudly, and became more and more happy as it spoke: "Your Qiang is so smart, he can tell at a glance that this must be a gift that the young lady secretly gave me!"

Chen Zhaoyue: “…”

Who would send express in this space?

What’s more, this stupid robot even installed this thing of unknown origin into its central processing unit!

"Johnny." Chen Zhaoyue took a deep breath: "Take out the chip and let me see it."

"No~" Johnny actually started to act like a spoiled child, shielding his head with his arms: "This is the first gift the lady gave Johnny!"

Chen Zhaoyue held his forehead and held down Johnny's head without saying a word, his fingers eagerly reaching for the chip slot at the back of his head.

But when she touched the chip that was flashing blue light, she felt an unusual electric sting at her fingertips.

After this chip is plugged in, it is automatically installed!

In just a short while, it had already been deeply integrated into Johnny's main control system and could not be forcibly removed.

"Oh no!" Chen Zhaoyue's fingers trembled slightly, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

She knew better than anyone that if this chip of unknown origin was forcibly removed, it would likely burn Johnny's core processor.

Johnny tilted his head, a confused blue light flickering in his electronic eyes: "Miss, what's wrong with you?"

"How do you feel now?" Shen Zhaoyue stared at Johnny's flashing electronic eyes, and his voice unconsciously tightened.

Johnny's voice was still full of joy: "Johnny feels really good now!"

But seeing Chen Zhaoyue's frown, it still obediently started the system self-check program.

"Ding ding... System checking..."

Johnny's electronic eyes flashed blue light regularly, and after half a minute, they suddenly turned into an excited green: "Reporting to the lady, Johnny's system operating speed has increased by 37%!"

It gestured with its hands: "The range of the hearing system has been expanded by 100%!"

Chen Zhaoyue raised an eyebrow in disbelief: "Is it really that magical?"

She circled Johnny again, observing his condition carefully.

"Really, really!" Johnny nodded vigorously: "The gift given by the lady is the best in the world!"

Chen Zhaoyue rubbed his chin thoughtfully. The improvement effect of this chip was indeed amazing, but its origin was really suspicious.

"Apart from this express delivery, are there any other changes in the space?" Chen Zhaoyue suddenly asked again.

"No!" Johnny shook his head, somewhat pleased: "It's been quiet lately, there aren't any ghosts!"

Chen Zhaoyue's eyes flashed, as if she remembered something: "Where is the express box? Bring it to me and see it."

Johnny skipped over to get a cardboard box. The surface was as smooth as new and had no marks on it.

Chen Zhaoyue checked it over and over again.

There is no shipping information, no receiving address, and not even a trace of a courier note.

Her fingertips gently stroked the edge of the box, and suddenly a possibility came to her mind.

It is impossible for the space to receive express deliveries from the outside world, so could this box itself be a product of the space?

This thought relaxed Chen Zhaoyue's tense nerves a little.

If the upgraded chip is actively "sent" by the space, its security should be guaranteed.

She looked up at Johnny, who was still spinning excitedly. At least for now, he seemed to be in better condition than before.

…

"Miss, Miss, look!" Shen Zhaoyue was still thinking about the matter of 'space express delivery' when she saw Johnny jogging over with an excited look on his face.

Chen Zhaoyue: “?”

What are you looking at?

"Johnny broke the record for washing dishes~" Johnny handed the freshly washed dishes to Shen Zhaoyue, holding his head high proudly, "He beat 99% of the robots in the country!"

Chen Zhaoyue: “…”

Although he didn't know what was worth bragging about, Johnny was very happy.

Maybe it was because the program was designed in a very rigid way, for example, it stipulated that the dishes had to be washed within a certain time. Johnny had always done things in a very orderly manner, but now that he had suddenly been upgraded, he was doing things much faster.

So Johnny was particularly happy.

"Wow~ That's amazing." So Chen Zhaoyue gave a perfunctory compliment.

Now Johnny is no longer in the future. Even if it defeats 100% of the robot butlers, no one will know that there is a robot like it that can wash dishes so fast.

"Hehe~"

Johnny was very happy to receive the praise from his master, and there were little stars in his electronic eyes.

If Johnny didn't have a tail, it would probably be wagging by now.

"Okay, stop conspicuous and come and help me plant things." Shen Zhaoyue remembered the important matter and called Johnny over.

“Okay!”

Johnny quickly put the bowl back and jumped in front of Shen Zhaoyue again.

Chen Zhaoyue took out the seeds given to her by the villagers of Kangzhuang Village. She couldn't tell what kind of seeds they were, but who cares? She just planted them first.

Johnny took out the seeds and skillfully planted them in the black soil.

As soon as the seeds were planted, a display screen appeared above the black soil: Pear, countdown 14 days, 23 hours and 59 minutes.

It seems that the planting time of medicinal herbs, vegetables and fruits is different.

However, it can mature in 15 days, which is already very fast.

Thinking that he would soon have the freedom to eat vegetables and fruits, Chen Zhaoyue felt very good.

After the seeds were planted, Johnny went back to the villa to work and threw Chen Zhaoyue's newly washed clothes into the washing machine.

Seeing that Johnny had no problem doing his work, and even seemed to be more skillful, Chen Zhaoyue thought for a moment and took Johnny out of the space, letting it loosen the soil in the yard as well.

She also wanted to plant some things outside so that she wouldn't have to explain herself when she took out so many things.

"Johnny, loosen this piece of land first." Chen Zhaoyue pointed to a piece of land in the corner and said to Johnny.

"Miss, Johnny is so strong now that he can loosen the soil in the whole yard!" Johnny felt that the whole robot became stronger after the chip was inserted.

For such a small yard, it’s no problem at all!

"Are you stupid? If you turn over everything, won't my husband suspect me?" Chen Zhaoyue rolled her eyes at it.

Given her current personality, the capitalist lady who can't carry anything on her shoulders or lift anything with her hands, Wen Yanxi was a little skeptical when she said she wanted to plant vegetables in the front yard. If he came home and saw that the yard was turned upside down, she would have a hard time explaining it.

“Oh…” Johnny was so full of energy at the moment that he didn’t know where to put it, but after hearing what Chen Zhaoyue said, he could only go and get a small piece in the corner.

But I have to say that Johnny was very efficient and turned it over in no time.

Chen Zhaoyue first watered the land with spiritual spring water to moisten it, then scattered the vegetable seeds on it and watered it lightly with spiritual spring water again.

Finally, he stood by with his hands on his hips and nodded with satisfaction.

She did the sowing and watering herself, but she was exhausted!

…

When Wen Yanxi returned home in the afternoon, he saw that an area in the corner of the front yard had been turned over. The originally dry soil had now become moist, and it seemed that seeds had been sown.

"Zhaoyue?" Wen Yanxi pushed open the door and saw Chen Zhaoyue slumped on the sofa to rest.

Wen Yanxi subconsciously lowered his footsteps.

She had been living alone in a small hut these past few days while hunting down enemy spies. With her pampered constitution, she certainly couldn't get used to sleeping on that hard, narrow bed. During the day, she also had to treat the villagers and hunt down enemy spies...

The little girl must not have had enough rest.

Chen Zhaoyue was not sleeping very soundly. He just lay down to rest for a while after finishing his work. He woke up when he heard Wen Yanxi calling his name.

"Uncle, you're back." Chen Zhaoyue lazily got up from the sofa and yawned, "I'll go wash the vegetables."

"No need, uncle told us to go to his house for dinner tonight." Wen Yanxi said.

"Oh..." Chen Zhaoyue had no objection. It didn't matter where they ate.

Wen Yanxi saw that she seemed a little sleepy, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "If you feel tired, we can go tomorrow."

"?"

"You haven't had a good rest these days in Kangzhuang Village." Wen Yanxi said, "Don't force yourself. I'll talk to uncle."

Wen Yanxi felt sorry for the little girl.

“Um…” Chen Zhaoyue suddenly felt guilty when she saw the concern in Wen Yanxi’s eyes.

She slept in a spacious bed during those days and didn't feel wronged at all.

"I'm actually not as delicate as you think. I just came back to rest after planting vegetables. I'm not tired at all." Chen Zhaoyue smiled, "Since my uncle invited us, we still have to go."

"I'm going to wash my hands, let's go."

"good."

Chen Zhaoyue came out after washing his hands. Wen Yanxi had also changed into casual clothes. Seeing Chen Zhaoyue wiping his hands, he looked up at him and said, "You can go now."

When she raised her head, Wen Yanxi saw a blood mark on her neck.

Wen Yanxi's brows wrinkled slightly, and his eyes darkened.

If they had been more careful, Shen Zhaoyue wouldn't have been injured...

After wiping the water droplets from his hands, Chen Zhaoyue walked to the door. As soon as he went out, he saw the place where vegetables had been planted at the door. Thinking that he would soon be able to eat the vegetables he planted, Chen Zhaoyue raised the corners of his mouth.

"Uncle, did you see this when you came back just now?" Chen Zhaoyue saw Wen Yanxi following him out, and he pointed to his previous battle results with great interest.

"I see." Since Chen Zhaoyue moved in with him, he went home more often, and he could quickly notice any changes at home.

"I just made it. From now on, we'll eat what we grow ourselves."

Chen Zhaoyue smiled brightly, like a little sun.

"Yeah." Wen Yanxi saw her smiling so happily, and seemed to be infected, with the corners of his lips slightly raised.

He then walked closer to Shen Zhaoyue, lowered his head and pecked her lightly on the lips.

Chen Zhaoyue: “?”

Is it so sudden?

Wen Yanxi was not satisfied after just one kiss, so he kissed her several more times.
